Hi.. don't know how I came across your post, I think I was following a story about recycled flip flops but then noticed the picture with the roselles. I grew them in Florida and made roselle jelly.. yum! I moved to Ohio 14 years ago and have tried growing them here. Trying to get the timing right and start them early enough.. hopefully this year. Anyway, great picture and I am enjoying reading your blog.

Words To Live By

People are often unreasonable, illogical and self centered; forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; succeed anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; be happy anyway.
Give the world the best you have, it may never be enough; give the world the best you have anyway.
You see in the end, it is between you and God; it was never between you and them anyway.
Mother Theresa

About Me

I am a married 30 something who is keen on living a simple life. At home we focus on eating real unprocessed foods, we use natural remedies when required and try to be as self reliant as possible.
I am a keen cook, fledgling farmer, avid reader, soap maker and enthusiastic gardener.
My husband and I moved from the middle of Brisbane to country Kilcoy so that we could live a simple, uncomplicated life away from the constant pressures of consumerism but have sold up our farm and moved back to the suburbs as we plan our move to New Zealand in 2016. We have already purchased a property there which we are slowly getting set up. We would like to be parents one day and believe that our lifestyle and values will give any children a healthy balanced life.
We are joined on this adventure by our 5 year old dog Jessie and look forward to having chickens and other farm animals again in the near future.
